Each time your thoughts turn to the ususal ciggy, turn to something more positive and constructive instead. cool

I know you can think of a few alternative behaviours. grin

navygirl1: I think it depends on what you are looking for. For example I don't think looks, and a perfect body are important. I want a man with a good heart and one that is going to be my best friend. I want to feel comfortable around him and just be myself. I see older men wanting kids, a certain type of body, a certain education, a certain height, etc. I think if you are too specific or picky; of course you won't be a good match to many women. I am a basic gal and looking for a basic guy. Looks, body, and money are not an issue with me, but that is just my opinion for what it is worth.


Exactlywave Throw caution to the four winds and see what happens. It is IMO a mistake to invent a stereotype for a partner. The best relationships I've had have been the last coupling my friends could imagine. No expectations and no demands. Just see what happens with whomeverhug


BTW, you look damn cute in that uniformbouquet

venere08: Never settle for LESS than what you really want. We're not talking about pie in the sky 'wants', but at the same time, giving in to wshat really are your 'non negotiables', doesn't work well in the end. JMO.



Well spoken wave

Key word for every relationships. The reality of being together 24/7 for the rest of life will expose the reality of our real needs and wants. The perfection in those situation is ( as kid said) Figuratevly speaking of course ... when you poke someone, a "back at you" reaction is positive.

Selfisness, arrogance, indifference and abcense of sense of humour will kill even the greatest Love feeling.

The biggest destroyer of relationships is a variety of simple things such as habbits conversing

itsallme112: When I look at the number of women I met and thought they were not a good match, I question if my expectations were too high. Likewise, myself selected as not a good match by others. Are our fantasies taking the place of reality?


Your intuitive feelings won't mislead you.

Big_John: Why shoot for the bottom to start with....luck is what we all need. Finding someone is hard whether you choose to find a 'perfect one' or anyone.


I agree with you. All we need is a little bit of luck! Just luck! Sometimes I felt that every time I joined a dating site, I'm playing the lottery trying to win the jackpot or at least the 2nd prize. And sometimes I think that dating is like a gamble, you win or you lose and I feel that I'm laying all my cards and still no luck!!frustrated While others found their s/o so I always asked myself why they are so lucky? sigh Now I'm wondering if my luck will come or not, or just delayed. confused dunno
